Yup, been doing crossfit for 2 weeks. Talk about a kick butt workout.

I eat Zone bars. They are a protein bar. They help with cravings and satisfy your hunger. Especially before a workout.

Hello, I eat all of those things because for me it is all about convience. I have added more veges and fruit to my diet. i eat the 100 calorie packs and lean cuisine. Like you said with the salt in there you might want to limit those per week. Maybe make a sandwich. Take a look at my diary and see maybe there might be…

Great Job!!!! That is what it is all about doing something we never thought we can or could do. You proved it to yourself that you can do anything. Keep up the great work.

How abount 1 minute sprints. You start off at about 6.0 for a minute and then go to about a 8.5 for a min. I do that for 35 min. Or I do a circuit where I will run as fast as I can for a .25 mile. Then I will do 25 jumping jacks, 25 sit ups, and then 25 pushups then continue doing .25 mile on treadmill and then do the…

The same reason I get up at 4 to workout and eat healthy foods and run 7 miles on a sat or sun morning. . To feel good about yourself and to maintain a healthy lifestyle. That should be all the motivation you should need. Why not work hard and be happy with yourself???? Don't give up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes, They are so good. I made them and brought them to a party and everyone loved them. They didn't even know that they were a better for you brownie.

There is a brownie mix called No pudge Brownies. Youc an probubaly find them in the brownie section at the store. You only add one 6oz container of fat free vanilla yogurt. They are 120 calories and fat free 28 carbs per serving. They are really good.

The polar HRM's are really good. You can monitor your progress with the calories as your working out. I have the f6 model and it is really good. Hope you find what your looking for.

There is a mix called no pudge brownies. You just add fat free vanilla vocurt. 120 calories and zero fat. They are great for that chocolate craving.

I feel the same way. Although I changed my profile and diary to only loosing a pound a week and I finally started loosing weight again. It had been 4 weeks since I had lost anything. I was so annoyed. I think for the amount of exercise I was doing i wasn't eating enough. Now I am eating more and I don't feel so deprived. I…

Heart rate monitor is a great investment. Polar F6.

Best investment. I wear mine whenever I exercise. I burn between 7 and 800 cal in a workout. I found the machines at the gym are not accurate at all. I have a polar f6 that was 99.00 and I also have a sportliner. It is so worth it. I like to know what exactly I am burning and this tells you. Good luck.

The Hrm is wonderful. Very accurate with the calories. I have a polar F6 and I love it. Good luck

Sounds so good. There is another type of brownie if your short for time. They are call No Pudge brownies. All you add is one container of Vanilla fat free yogurt. 120 cal per serving no fat 28 carbs. They are so good. You can find this mix in the natural food section or the baking section of your grocery store. They are in…

Have the same problem. Was the shoes. Went to a good sneaker shop and they measured and watched me run and walk and fitted me for the right shoe for my foot. Not cheap for the sneakers. Worth it to not have the numbness. Good luck.

It's hard to find that right time. Once you get into a routine it gets easier. I get up every morning at 3:45 and go to the gym at 4:15 and work out until 6 when my husband has to leave for work. I have three kids and they all have different things going on so for me it is easier to get up early and do it. Then I can get…

I get up at 4:00am ever ymorning and exercise until 6. I get home in time for my husband to go to work. I have three boys all under the age of 7. So this is the only time I can go. Granted I am tired some days but so worth it. Good luck.

I am in the same boat. I have lost inches though. Check that and maybe you have lost inches rather then weight. I was told to be patient and that is what I am doing. Good luck

That is all I have before my workout. Have no trouble with it. I workout at 4:30 in the morning so That is way to early to eat anything. So coffee works for me.

I am a stay at home mom to of three boys. 7,4, and 2. My husband works long days as well. I go to a gym at 4:30 every morning before he leaves for work. It is hard some days but so worth it just to get out and do something for myself.

There is another brownie mix called No pudge Brownies. All you add is fat free vanilla yogurt. They are so good. You can find them in most grocery stores where the brownies are. They are in a pink box. Good luck

I was having the same problem. Until I invested in a Heart Rate Monitor. Great and very accurate when doing all different exercises. Good luck!!!

Good luck to you. I have three boys and before i had my first son I lost 50 lbs. Only to gain it right back when I was pregnant. I have gained 50 or more with each pregnancy. Somewhere I find the motivation after each pregnancy to loose the weight and I have. . It has taken me almost two years to loose the 65 I gained with…

Great Job!!! Congratulation's on such a great accomplishment.

Hi, I went to a actual store that specializes in fitting runners feet. I invested in a shoe called Brooks. Best shoes for me they are very comfortable and give me the support I need to run. It is worth it to find a store like this. Good Luck.

I agree with you. I burn between 600 and 800 each time exercising and If i didnt eat back those calories I would starve. I am on the 1200 a day as well.

If you log strength training under the cardio section it will give you calories you burned. What Heart rate Monitor do you have? My husband got me a polar HRM and I am very happy with it. very accurate. Good luck to you!
